Geneva, Nov. 18.
The machinery of the League of Nations is moving at top speed to settle the Gran Chaco dispute, which has now become more complicated and which threatens to embroil other South American States in a war which has been carried on for more than two years already. There are alarming reports that the Argentine is moving troops to the frontier to meet Bolivian forces which have turned towards the border following à Paraguayan victory.
The Special Committee Reporting to the Assembly on the Gran Chaco dispute suggests that a neutral supervisory committee of six be appointed to enforce the cessation of hostilities and create a neutral zone, behind which neither side is to construct fortifications and to which no further supplies of war material shall be brought.
The Committee recommends that within one month of these measures being carried out,
peace frenly negotiations shall he opened at conference between the belliger- enta, A two-month time limit shall he allowed this conference to reachi at decision.
The Committee's report, which approving the action of certain member nations of the League în respect to an arms embargo Against the belligerent states, Auggests that if one party to the dispute accepts the Assembly's recommendations and the other
not, then the embargo on arms may be raised in respect to the country which accepted the League's recommendations.
